Running Suns with no keyboard but using both rs232

[ben ullrich]

i think the machine always has to have a console, no matter what. if you
don't have a bitmap, you must use ttya or ttyb. if you need more serial
ports than that, just one or two (depending on the existence of a bitmap),
you should get an mti / alm board.

if neither of these are possible, you might see if there's a way to set
the eeprom to use /dev/null as console, and / or re-creating /dev/console
with theh same device numbers as /dev/null (0,0) . this might do the
trick.

note that without a console, there is no way to do single-user admin or
maintenance... this is generally why a console is required, at least as
far as i can tell.
